Brief Summary

Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting continues to be a significant problem in children and adolescents. Standard antiemetic therapy, including a 5-HT3 antagonist, aprepitant, and a corticosteroid, achieves complete control in less than 50% of patients. Studies have shown that the addition of large doses of olanzapine improves control, including in children and adolescents. However, olanzapine has not yet been included in standard recommendations in the pediatric population. Studies in adults indicate that the dose of the drug can be halved without loss of effectiveness and with a decrease in toxicity. This open-label, randomized, phase III trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of adding low-dose olanzapine to standard prevention of nausea and vomiting induced by highly emetogenic chemotherapy in children and adolescents.

Interventions

Ondnsetron will be administered at a dose of 0.15 mg/kg IV/PO every 8 hours on the day(s) of chemotherapy and 3 days after completion of chemotherapy

Control groupOlanzapine

Dexamethasone will be administered at a dose of 5 mg/m2 intravenously/orally once on the day(s) of chemotherapy and 3 days after completion of chemotherapy;

Control groupOlanzapine

Aprepitant will be administered based on body weight: body weight 30-40 kg: days 1-3 - 80 mg orally; body weight \> 40 kg: day 1 - 125 mg orally, days 2, 3 - 80 mg orally

Control groupOlanzapine

Olanzapine will be administered at a dose of 0.07 mg/kg orally on the day(s) of chemotherapy and 3 days after completion of chemotherapy (rounded up to the maximum multiple of 2.5 mg, maximum daily dose of 5 mg).
